<p>I hate to tell you this, but Akin's at it again. It's not as offensive as his rape comment, all he did was liken his Democratic opponent to a dog. The only possible reason it could be considered a semimajor story is because his opponent's a woman.</p>

<p>Akin not stepping down might be a good thing, if it <strong>dilutes the Republican vote</strong>. Mary Matalin said on Sunday that the party is ready to run and finance a "third-party" write-in candidate.</p>

<p>Stephanapolous: So you are just convinced he’s going to get out</p>
<p>Matalin: <strong>Or we’ll run a third party, we’ll run a write-in. We can do it. We have the money to do it. We are going to transfer the money.</strong> It’s not as easy. But it’s a good state for Romney and we will get it back.</p>

<p>Yes, I noticed that years ago...but they don't want people they disapprove of to form families. It''s almost funny that Mormons are at the top of the list when it comes to ranting about "traditional family values," when you consider their history. </p>

<p>Barnes was quoted by <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2012/08/21/us/politics/republicans-decry-todd-akins-rape-remarks.html?_r=4&amp;pagewanted=2&amp;hp" rel="nofollow">The New York Times</a> saying, "abortion is never an option." Barnes went on to biblically claim that, "If God has chosen to bless this person <strong>[the rape victim]</strong> with a life, you don’t kill it."</p>
